EXAGGERATED REPORTS.

There have been wild rumors of a
fetal epidemic ut Henderson, which
gained wide currency. 1t was stated
that people were dying rapidly. There
was no basis for such reports, which in
jure a place in every way. Another
rumoris gaining currency-that Raleigh
is scourged with typhoid-fever. That
is equally groundless, 1t is said that
there are not over half dozen cases in
the entire city, these being widely
scattered. There is no epidemic and
no marked fatality. 1t has been stated
that the excavations in the streets for
the laying of the water-mains caused
sickness. A few cases of malarial or
bilious fever may be attributed to this
cause. The excavations were completed
by the middle OF June.

young schoolgirl fired the hearts OF
the white men in that section. Your

some of the more devilish actually
threatened the life of his intended vic

negroes would gather in force on the
4th of July and the white men were
armed TO the teeth in readiness for
trouble. There is considerable tur-

Something to Think Over.

The truth of the text, ITO him that
hath shall be given" is shown by the
care taken to restore cx-cOnvicts to
their political rights. The fact that
they belong to the male sex commends
them to favor. In Iowa (and some
thing similar is true in other States)
the Governor has adopted q form of
certificate under which, il signed by
two men testifying to the good con-
duct of the ex-convict for q certain
length of time. he shall be restored to
his political rights. But no woman,
however wise or good or well en-
dorsed. can find any open door to her
political rights. She denied because
she is woman. He il welcomed be-
cause he is a man. Is it not time that
good women syould be made the r ,lit-
ical equals Of ex-convicts?- Romap's

RUST IN WHEAT.

Destructive Fungus Which PAasoo
Through Three Distinct Ages.
The disease known rs rust in wheat
and oats is caused by fungus called
Puccinia graminis, which has most in
teresting history. just as truly as the
codlingmoth live during part Of its life
as a larva in the apple, second part
as pupa under the bark near the base Of
the tree, and the third adult stage a. .
mature moth with wings. 80 does this.
rust have three distinct stages. Tho
black rust stage is the mature stage in
which the black spores are produced
that survive the winter in the straw or
stubble of wheat, oats or some other
grass plants. In the spring these rest
ing spores in some way get upon the
leaves of barberry Every probably ON
some more common plants also) and
terminate. producing what il
known As the cluster cups
on that shrub. The cup-like
formations on the surface of the bar
berry leaf are full of minute spores
which are carried by the winds, some
reaching the grain. These spores
lodge on the rough surfaces Of tha
blades and stems of the wheat or oats
and begin growth by sending out .
very minute and thread-like mycellum.
as it Is called. which penetrates the
plant and grows through the tissue.
multiplying very rapidly. When tho
grain is nearly ripe the mycellum pro-
duces yellowish spores near the sur
face of the leaves and stems. which
break through and stand out over the
plant. often making it look a reddish
yellow and covering the hands and
clothes of those binding it by hand be-
fore the dew is of in the morning.
These spores fall to other parts Of tho
plant and grow, thus aiding the rapid
MULTIPLICATION of tho thrcad-like my
cellum in filing the plant tissues
The third or adult stage differs main
" in the kind Of spores produced over
the surface of the plant They ara
black, instead of reddish or yellow.
They can be seen in rows along tho
stem or leaves Of ripe grain. or stubbie
in fields that were infested. These
black spores are more dense than thOsa
produced in the second or ''red stage
and are calculated to live through the
winter and start = new generation BY
first living in the cluster-cup stage in
the leaves Of the barberry. The fact
that the field of wheat was infested this
year goes to show that there was bar
berry or other plants upon which the
rust can pass its first stage. The pres
ent knowledge of this fungus i net
clear enough to enable one to deter
mine how certainly it will reappear
after having infested n field. Unless
wheat is BY far the most profitable.
corn or some other paying crop should
be grown next year. The rust il said
to work most rapidly in moist warm
weather, and the amount Of damage
done will depend greatly on the kind q
ssason.-Auisjs Farner.

We have heard Hiram Smith say

in undertaking to make first-class

times over take q young man or wo-
man who never saw pound Of butter
than some farmer or his wife who had
made butter all their lives in their
own way.
There is Just the same difference be-
tween feeding for eggs or feeding for
market that there is in feeding for lean
meat, growth or milk, and feeding for
fat. The farmers wife often complains
that her hens will not lay. The reason
is they get all the corn they want and
are too fat. The egg is composed
largely of albumen and to produce it
the hens must have albuminOids.
